I don't know if this will work right, seeing as how every person is going to see this beam. Also, you shouldn't draw it straight from the attacker to the victim. Get the attacker's eye level and set that as the starting point. See http://wiki.alliedmods.net/SDKTools_...sition_Example for info on how to do that.

that didnt answer any of my questions .

I know, I was just giving you some tips and such.

You need to precache a model and get the return value. Use that for model index.
Use NULL (or maybe 0 if that doesn't work for halo model)

"sprites/lgtning.vmt"
"sprites/steam1.vmt"
"sprites/blueglow1.vmt"
"sprites/crystal_beam1.vmt"

would be some good models to play around with

LOL. thanks

still need to know those 3 questions if any one has any ideas .

a is alpha. 255 - full visible, 0 - invisible. Take your pick..

And just play around with the speed.

Click effects, individual effects, beam points. To see some examples numbers and a picture of what they look like

public plugin_precache()
{
precache_model()
}

Hi there!
I have a little problem using TE_SetupBeamPoints. It just ignores the blue color value, as if it's set to 0. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?

EDIT: Sorry guys... Actually it works fine. I have found an error, it was my fault...

weird. that always worked for me. try using a sprite that has the blue color in it, like a white one. i am mot sure if a red one can turn into blue.
